| The Apache Flex Tour De Flex component explorer provides a sample set of working | |
| Apache Flex examples. | |
| This application is based on work donated by Adobe and their component explorer and is | |
| expected to be updated over time. | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| Initial Setup Required | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| The environment variable FLEX_HOME needs to be set to the absolute path of the Apache | |
| Flex SDK. If you prefer you can set this in env.properties. | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| How to build Tour De Flex using ant (no IDE is required) | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| 1. On Linux or Mac un tar/gzip the source distribution: | |
| tar -zxvf apache-flex-tour-de-flex-component-explorer-1.2.tar.gz | |
| Or if on windows unzip | |
| apache-flex-tour-de-flex-component-explorer-1.2.zip | |
| 2. In the base directory, run: | |
| ant compile | |
| 3. To optionally create a release source package, run: | |
| ant package | |
| 4. Open explorer.html in your browser of choice. | |
| Note Some browsers (such as Chrome) may not be able to view local content without further | |
| configuration. | |
| 5. To remove all of the compiled swfs: | |
| ant clean | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| Some other useful ant targets | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| There are several other useful ant targets. Note that compile-shell is required if you want | |
| changes to explorer.xml to take effect. | |
| compile-shell compile explorer shell | |
| compile-mx compile mx examples | |
| compile-spark compile first set of spark examples | |
| compile-spark2 compile second set of spark examples | |
| compile-spark3 compile third set of spark examples | |
| compile-apache compile apache examples | |
| compile-squiggly compile apache squiggly examples | |
| package-tar tar up all source files | |
| package-zip zip up all source files | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| Compiling a single example | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| Most of the examples can be compiled by hand with mxmlc. For example: | |
| mxmlc ./src/spark/controls/ListExample.mxml | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| How to check the code out of Git | |
| ========================================================================================== | |
| 1. Check out the the code from the Apache Flex utilities project | |
| git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/flex-utilities.git flex-utilities | |
| cd flex-utilities | |
| git checkout develop | |
| 2. Change directory to: | |
| cd TourDeFlex/TourDeFlex3 | |
